For some reason (COVID, really), all the good movies are being released within this very short one month window, so I’m trying my hardest to see as many as I can. I’ve been excited about some of these for quite some time, so it was a great week for me if I’m being honest. Check out what made the cut!

Weekend Movie Review
All things considered, I’m a little shocked I was able to squeeze in my standard three movies for the weekend! And with that, they all managed to be pretty darn entertaining.

This weekend I managed to squeeze in quite an eclectic mix of films whenever I could! Let’s get to it!
Read moreBook Review: Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness
It took me a little while, but I finally finished the second book in Deborah Harkness’ All Souls Trilogy, Shadow of Darkness. Now, similar to the second season of A Discovery of Witches, this book wasn’t really my favorite, but there were still parts to enjoy.

I don’t believe a single film I watched over this holiday weekend was in any way patriotic, but that did not make them any less enjoyable! Here we go with some high level recaps and my honest two cents.

I don’t know that anything I watched this weekend I planned on watching, but I have zero regrets about any of them. All were practically spur of the moment, with a few that I’d never even really heard of before. They also covered a wide array of genres which always makes for an entertaining time. I would say if you picked any of these films to watch in the future you won’t be let down. I promise!
Read moreMidnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer Book Review
I warned you all back when I read Twilight that I was doing it in anticipation of the release of Midnight Sun, and it’s here! While it took me an obscenely long time to finish, that does not mean I didn’t like it. In fact, the opposite is true – I loved it! So, so much.
Read moreThe Alienist: Angel of Darkness Season Finale
Welp, the final two episodes of The Alienist: Angel of Darkness aired, and I’ve come away from it wholeheartedly disappointed. It honestly seemed like such a mess that I’m surprised anyone actually liked it. I know that I kept trying to trick myself this past month into thinking that it was still good despite the GLARING differences from the book, but I will tolerate it no longer. And that’s all because of the trash fire that was the final two episodes.
Read moreThe Alienist – Episodes 5 & 6
Well, next week is already the season finale of The Alienist: Angel of Darkness, and once again, I am mildly disappointed with all the creative liberties they’ve taken. I’ve come to the conclusion that having only eight episodes to tell the story had a lot to do with it, but still. Anyways, here we go.
Read moreThe Alienist Episodes 3 & 4
As I said last week, while the scenes are extraordinary and the acting is superb in The Alienist: The Angel of Darkness, I could kick myself for reading the book first! It is clear that I would be enjoying this second season so much more if I’d followed my own rules. Even though they are different, the book is the source material, and therefore it is “law.” So if I’d only found myself watching this with no background, I know I would be enjoying it so much more!
